Abstract

This study evaluated an Intensive Outpatient Program (IOP) in a private practice setting. Patients received the Symptom Checklist–90—Revised preand posttreatment and the Client Satisfaction Questionnaire–8 posttreatment, which were used to measure symptom change and client satisfaction. Reliable Change Indices and Clinically Significant change scores were calculated for each individual (N = 225) using several variables from therapist and clinician perspectives. Highly significant improvement rates on client symptom ratings were also validated by clinician global assessment of functioning ratings, client satisfaction, and discharge rates to lower levels of care. This IOP was demonstrated to be more effective than psychotherapy in clinically representative studies, randomized clinical trials, and controlled clinical trials as well as comparable to many widely used medical interventions.
